Description
Hundreds of Palestinian lawyers demonstrate in front of the Council of Ministers in Ramallah, raising Palestinian flags and placards, to protest against the issuance of laws by presidential decrees, which are supposed to be issued by the Palestinian parliament -- inactive since 2006. Lawyers gathered "as a result of the continuation of the protest activities of the Bar Association, which rejects a set of decisions by law that affect the Palestinian citizen, rights and freedoms, and that are related to economic security and civil peace," says president of the Bar Association Suhail Ashour.
